Trent Alexander-Arnold broke a Premier League record on Wednesday as he helped guide Liverpool to a massive victory over Watford.<\/p>\n

On the heels of a scoreless draw with Manchester United, the Reds exploded for five goals in the 5-0 victory over Watford to maintain their spot atop the Premier League.<\/p>\n

Alexander-Arnold assisted for three of those five goals, setting up Sadio Mane twice early on as well as Virgil van Dijk from a second-half free kick.<\/p>\n

The full-back became the youngest\u00a0player to assist three goals in a single Premier League match with his trio of assists coming at\u00a020 years,143 days.<\/p>\n

With Wednesday’s efforts, Alexander-Arnold doubled his assist\u00a0tally to six for the season in 18 appearances.\u00a0<\/p>\n

His first contribution came in the ninth minute as the full-back whipped in a ball from the right side that found Mane for a headed finish.<\/p>\n

The second was more to Mane’s credit, as the winger bounced back from a heavy touch to fire a magnificent backheel finish past Ben Foster.<\/p>\n

With the two goals, Mane has now had a hand in eight goals in just five Premier League matches against Watford since moving to Liverpool.<\/p>\n

The goals also bring him up to 14 Premier League finishes for the season, to mark his best-ever haul in the competition.<\/p>\n

Divock Origi joined the fray with a goal of his own in the 66th minute, pushing the lead to 3-0 while all but ending Watford’s hopes.<\/p>\n

Van Dijk’s pair of finishes just padded the scoreline as the Netherlands international scored in the 79th and 82nd minutes to complete the lopsided scoreline.<\/p>\n

The loss also extends Watford’s misfortunes against the Reds,\u00a0as the club have lost 11 of their 12 top-flight away games against Liverpool.<\/p>\n
